Topic: Monday accountability!
Back at it...
B- mocha protein shake
S- coffee w/SF creamer
L- beans w/ sausage
S- deli turkey w/ cream cheese
D- chili
S- yogurt w/ granola
36 minutes elliptical tonight...even if it kills me. No dippin in the Halloween candy...even if it kills me...I may just have a bon-fire and burn that crap! My 4 YO is about sick of it too. You know it is bad when the kiddo's think they want the candy, open it, take one lick and then throw it away. A sure sign the crap has gotta go! I may just have some sorta ritual tonight when he goes to bed and open it all and run it through my garbage disposal! If I just dump the bag in the trash can...well the wrappers are still on it and still too much of a problem. I could just walk it out to the dumpster since it is rainy and muggy outside then it will for sure get ruined and no longer yell at me! Any ideas?

Topic: RE: Why do we do it to ourselves?
Why do we do it? I wish I could answer.. I have not a clue... ridiculous addictions from past life I suppose.
Why dark choc doesn't do it? Not sure either but the same thing with me. I can eat a whole dark choc dove bar and do fine, the baby ruth and oh henry would drop me low. ????
Our bodies really know what is the better for our health evil is I guess...
I have had the exact same conversation with myself Elaine with all the things u mentioned above. Eating clean makes me fee great, crappy food makes me feel crappy.... duh.. so why do we even try??????????? The million dollar ?.
glad you get the same reaction though, it sucks but it sucks for our benefit. Hugs.

Topic: Why do we do it to ourselves?
So today I conducted a little experiment with myself. I don't know how mny of you have tested the waters, so to speak. I know I have. I know how many little pieces of Dove dark chocolate I can have before I dump. And, my dumping episodes are not too bad...mainly just a faster heartbeat and then get rather sleepy, but nothing too drastic, really.
But, today, I thought about my little episode the other day with getting the shakes in the middle of working out and decided to test things and see what was going on. The conclusion. Mild reactive hypoglycemia.
I had a mini-baby ruth and a fun-sized oh-henry candy after dinner this evening. About an hour to an hour and a half later I got the shakes. I knew then what it was. The Sugar-crash. I don't have a glucose monitor but it also doesn't take a genious to figure it out.
Those little Halloween tid-bits don't have nutritional values on them so I don't know how much sugar I had injested but I can't imagine it is more than the Dove dark chocolate I have eaten in the past...without repricussion I might add.
So then the question is...why does that candy do it and not the dark chocolate? Does it matter? It doesn't really. Other than me wanting to play mind-games with myself again.
So, in conclusion...why do I do this to myself? Obviously testing my limits. But why do I even need to know the limit? The junk makes me feel like crap. Eating cleanly and healthily makes me feel better. Shouldn't that be enough? But, it's not.
I am glad I had this reaction. Someone else may not be. But, for me, it reminds me that I really need to take care of myself and eat well or I could end up with drastic consequences if I pu**** too far.
I ramble...sorry.

Topic: RE: Saturday accountability
Hi, hope you had a nice Saturday. Rainy and gray here today...inspirational for grazing. Not good! Biiiiiig fight with DH last night and still upset about it today but he went hunting and I got busy getting ready to get the kitties from the vet and then the rest of the day taking care of their poor little drugged-up selves. They've both had another dose of pain meds/antibiotics and are laying around here rather gorped-up. Looks like they are going to both be healing very well, except for cost we are really pleased with our vet. Oh well, good medical care isn't cheap and our babies are worth it.
Eats today, as best I can remember them:
--about a pot of coffee and creamer
2 lf lattes
cc pancakes, 1/4 c syrup, 1 real egg
2 servings Melissa's Apple Crisp and sf whipped topping
1/3 cup craisins
2 cups Diana's Black Bean Soup
about 6 oz. chicken breast and lf ranch (in 2 servings)
1/2 cup nsa ice cream
Too much grazing...sigh. Only had a little nap for sleep last night and been so busy today. DH is letting DS have a sleepover tonight, sheesh. There will be no sleep going on here but then I have a hunch I'll be worrying about the kitties tonight anyway.
I will do better tomorrow! May even manage to get my homemade protein bars made if things settle down around here.
Hugs!

Hi all,
I am out of town with family. I did good today,
B- eggs, sausage and grits
D- shrimp with alfredo sauce, salad
Lots of water. I have been sick this week with cold/flu. Been taking Nyquil all week, including tonight. It is TOM as well, so it makes for a little misery for me.
I hope to shake this so that I can get back to the gym on Monday. We are tailgating tomorrow so I dont know what I will be eating. Will try to get online and post.
